A very imposing garden visitor. I have only ever seen a Sparrowhawk in the garden on two occasions, once the female and then the male a few months later. I was fortunate to have the camera at hand on both occasions. We used to blame all of the feathers in the garden on the local cats, but now we are not so sure that they were to blame ! Several friends have reported them in their gardens too, so it looks as if the gardens with bird tables make a convenient feeding station for these birds as well. |
